I've been working on this project behind the scenes since, like, February, and I think I am finally ready to publish it.

🚔🚨 The Surveilled City is a project that covers high-tech police surveillance, smart city technologies that mission creep into policing, and policing-related AI for concerned residents, municipal policymakers, and journalists.

Expect accessible explainers, how-to guides, and related news coverage.

It is in beta and I am one person, so it has bugs. I build it with heavy use of AI assistants and test it on real phones. It is GPLv3 so it can outlive me, and I will never charge money for it.

So it’s a vibe coded map app that just asks Google for traffic data? you might as well just use Google maps in your browser if it’s that big of a deal for you

@zzt truly cursed 😭

Oh that’s just the surface. First they’ll sell off all their equipment to their douchy frat bros, then lease said equipment back at exorbitant rates. Then they’ll load the company with debt to pay massive bonuses to themselves. Then they’ll blame it on the stewardess.

If you think about it though it all seems fair and just. How dare the hourly wagies want fair pay for honest work!? Peasants just aren’t what they used to be. Fucking capitalism is just tedious…

@scottjenson also a curious answer, from a professional in the computer trade (is that acceptable?).

You were evasive on the subject of how much advice the Mastodon people take from you. Would it be incorrect for me to surmise from that evasiveness that your influence is considerable? If it were slight, I think you would have highlighted that.

I hate buying cars and leasing cars. Even in the negotiation process for these cars, or I should say car, I'm only getting one, at least I hope, I'm in control. I'm guiding the conversation.

All we had to do was follow the damn train, CJ.

I have to make a dozen printable worksheets for the first big guide on there. If you know some drag-and-drop software for form elements that I can export to PDF, let me know 💕

Y'all acting real funny with y'all's money!

Ну знаешь, в D&D есть трессимы, кошки-птицы, а это может кошка-растерие.

@Ashedryden YES

Looks like our servers are on the fritz again. Usually we aren’t out of commission for too long. Hopefully we are back soon.
